years ago I had a lifter 'collapse' while I waited two weeks to get replacement rocker shafts. During that time they sat unloaded so there was no pressure on the lifter cups. After a few days of driving I got pissed off hearing that rattle bounce off the side of the McDonalds building in the drive-thu. i pulled out onto the highway and left about 40 yards of drag at full throttle. The lifter shut up.
I don't recommend that method, but it worked for me.
But first I would pull the valve cover on the noisy side and check two things. One, make sure the plastic buttons that hold the rockers centered are all intact. If one of them breaks, the rocker can move and bend a pushrod. Two, look at the ends of the rocker shafts. The outside most rocker is unsupported on both side and the rocker shaft likes to break at the bolt hole. That will allow the end to curl up and induce rattle.
